I Dig Tuesday update

Many of you have been asking about when I Dig Tuesdays will start at Jungle, and the short answer is - they will not - at least not for the foreseeable future. The state is not approving any new trail building at Jungle right now, so other than an occasional maintenance TM session, we don't have much to do there right now. 

However, we have come up with an alternative. We're going to be doing bi-weekly Tuesday trail building at the Hamburg Mountain Wildlife Management Area in Vernon. This is the property that is above Mountain Creek, and is a great opportunity for JORBA to spread their influence in the area! 

Our first session will be Tuesday, May 10, meeting at 5:45 p.m. Use "Daniel Boone Trail, Vernon, NJ" for your GPS. You'll come in off of Rt. 515 (Vernon Stockholm Rd), and follow the dirt road down for about 1 mile. At the fork, stay left. Lowriders (we're looking at you, Dillon and Jim Vreeland!) will not make it down this section. You can park at the top and walk or jump in with a buddy if you want! As usual, wear appropriate footwear, bring gloves, water and bug spray. We'll bring the tools! 

We will be trying to do this every other Tuesday (or at least 2x a month) - stay tuned for more dates! 

We know it is a bit out of the way to make it to after work, but we're excited to work in Hamburg Mountain WMA area. If you can't make it here, please consider hitting Dirty Thursdays with the Ringwood Trail Crew, or check the JORBA Calendar for other opportunities.
